Virtual servers

Virtual Servers Overview

Virtual servers offer many of the same capabilities that dedicated servers do, just in an elastic way. Unlike physical servers, you can resize and scale your virtual servers up or down at any time. Additionally, virtual servers offer enhanced resilience against downtime. For these reasons and many others, virtual servers have become a favorite of developers and enterprises alike.

We chose SingleHop because the people are very accessible; we can reach out and get our questions answered quickly. They’ve got the quality we need, the servers we need, the specs we need.

Elastic, Flexible, and Scalable

All aspects of our virtual servers are fully customizable. Upgrade or downgrade your resource allocations, select your operating system, even stipulate the level of managed services that you need with incredible granularity. Every server is completely custom, fluid, and you can change the configurations at any time.

Pay Only for What You Use

We offer hourly, resource-based billing, so you only pay for the computing resources that your organization actually uses and nothing more. Spin resources up and down in a moment’s notice to manage your costs actively. You may also choose to pay monthly at a discounted rate for more consistent workloads.

On-Demand Deployment in Just 5 Minutes

Your virtual servers are guaranteed to be online in 5 minutes or less by our solid customer Bill of Rights SLA. In 2014, our average virtual server deployment time was just over 90 seconds.

Control Every Aspect of Your Server

Our virtual servers are powered by software from VMware called vCloud Suite and Microsoft called Hyper-V Manager and managed from within the award-winning SingleHop LEAP control panel. The result is the industry’s most robust, easy-to-use, enterprise-class cloud computing platform.

A Comprehensive Approach to Security

Every server we deploy is secured by Shield from the get-go. Shield features include fundamental physical, network, account, server, and application security options. You can add advanced security features to your devices, such as DDoS mitigation and anti-virus protection, by upgrading to Shield Plus for $30 per month per server.
